When U.S. President Trump visited Japan, he visited a restaurant for dinner with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe.
It was Robatayaki, Inakaya.
I will introduce what kind of restaurant it is.
What is robatayaki?
It refers to a form of izakaya, a Japanese countryside style restaurant where the staff serves grilled (over charcoal) seafood and vegetables.
It is said to have originated in Sendai City, Miyagi Prefecture after World War II.
Inakaya
Robatayaki Inakaya is the best robatayaki restaurants in the world.
It’s an old restaurant opened in Roppongi in 1970 as a Japanese traditional robatayaki restaurant.
It is located in a convenient location from Roppongi Station.
They have two stores in Roppongi, one in the east and the other in the west, and the store President Trump visited this time is the east store.
They also open a store in New York.
On the website, it is the most popular robatayaki restaurant in the world.
It is established in 1970 and loved for more than 40 years by government officials and celebrities of various countries, including the U.S. president.
And there are three important points of the store.
1 Iki it means Chic
There are delicious things, beautiful sake, and people gather there.
They are not bound by the constraints of the world, they do not deviate, they do not have contact with others as they are, and they face each other without being separated.
Please enjoy such natural and stylish time.
2 Katsu It means Fresh
The fresh ingredients that are in season now are made into a superb dish that makes the most of the ingredients by facing the Irori fireplace in front of customers.
Please enjoy the exquisite taste with the selected brand sake.
3 Iki it means Sprits
It is also good to see craftsmen who do brisk work.
You can either have a friendly conversation or love the way they are served.
Please feel the spirit of the people of Edo who devote themselves to their hospitality.
Characteristic provision method of Inakaya
It is also famous as a restaurant that established “Robatayaki style” where high-grade materials are baked in front of you.
The performance that serves dishes on a large rice paddle in response to the energetic chanting is loved not only by foreign tourists, but also by government officials and celebrities around the world.
A large percentage of the customers are foreigners, so they are highly evaluated by foreign tourists.

・In the first place, the shop has no price. Fair value. The production, atmosphere, and service are good, but the price is great.
・The entertainment and taste are real, but if the general public likes it, it will be a shocking price.
・It’s delicious, but it’s also famous for its high price.
